A Horse With No Name Lyrics

A Horse With No Name lyrics

On the first part of the journey
 I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds
 and rocks and things.
There was sand and hills and rings.

The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
 and a sky with no clouds.
The heat was hot
 and the ground was dry
 but the air was full of sound.

[chorus]
I've been through the desert
 on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert,
 you can't remember your name
'cause there ain't noone
 for to give you no pain.

After two days in the desert sun
 my skin began to turn red.
After three days in the desert sun
 I was looking at a river bed.
And the story it told of a river that flowed
 made me sad to think it was dead.

[chorus]

After nine days, I let the horse run free
 'cause the desert had turned to sea.
There were plants and birds
 and rocks and things.
There was sand and hills and rings.
The ocean is a desert
 with its life underground
 and a perfect disguise above.
Under the city
 lies a heart made of ground
 but the humans will give no love.

[chorus]
